Quite a fascinating animal, Wayne! I would not trust one as a pet. But in a tank with 1/2" Lexan, and another regular one with prey,it could be interesting.I have had several Praying Mantis' as friends and pets, both large green and smaller brown.I also had a pet large tarantula as a pet.Of aggressive aquarium fish, the Siamese Fighting fish were beautiful and violent.
